mmegaeraDo all free WordPress themes have to look like they're trying to be sleek and modern?
Does anyone know how to find a theme that's a) simple -- not eighteen gazillion options, since all I really want to be able to do is change colors, fonts, and upload my own header image -- and b) looks like it would be happy in the 19th century? (you know, edges that look torn, rough textures, maybe a little wood-grain, no razor-straight lines -- that sort of thing)
That's all I really want. I have keyworded and searched myself into oblivion. I really don't want to spend upfront money on this (I would go for a thirty-day trial, then pay, but that doesn't seem to be how this works -- I don't want to pay for something that might not work out, and not be able to get my money back).
I'm really at my wits' end.
I really, really hope that there are some WordPress aficionados on my FL. In addition to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
